Legend of Green: Rise of the Red Rebels

After 90 minutes, only a few people in blue jerseys were celebrating the victory on the red court, laughing and mocking the people wearing red jerseys on the other side.

However, the Blues' boss Mauricio Sarri couldn't laugh a little, and although Chelsea won the Carabao Cup away, FC United only sent a group of substitutes to face this game.

Isn't he afraid that the momentum of the players will be affected? Moreover, this is a cup game, if you lose, you will be eliminated, Sarri and Lu Wei shook hands and walked off the field, and directly found a corner and lit a cigarette.

He really couldn't figure out why FC United gave up the game, and although Chelsea also had reservations, Eden Hazard, Morata and Antonio Rudiger were all sitting on the bench to keep the league running, but not as much as FC United.

Krull, Tette, Pepe, Webster, Henry, Rice, McGim, Krunich, Daniel. James, Saint-Maximin and Schupomotin, this set of starters did not have a regular workhorse other than Pepe, Saint-Maximin and Rice only occasionally entered the starting line-up, FC United also let the youth team Gilmore come off the bench for 30 minutes in the second half.

But it is such an FC United second team, but also has been entangled with Chelsea 1.5 team until the end of the game to divide the winner, it is Willian who scored the killer goal, and it was Hazard who came off the bench who sent the assist, if it were not for the excellent assist sent by Hazard after passing, it is difficult to say whether Chelsea can win this game.

Sarri also saw that Lu Wei left all the main players of FC United in the league, FC United has clearly told Sarri how I will play in the league at the weekend, but Sarri also has to consider how much physical strength the players have to deal with FC United in 100% after this League Cup.

But will Lu Wei really show his cards to his opponents? When Chelsea's starting list for FC United in the seventh round of the Premier League was announced, Sarri was so angry that smoke burned up in his mouth.

FC United's starting goalkeeper will be Keylor Navas, three defenders Pepe, Maguire and Rice, five midfielders Trippier, Jorginho, McGim, Maddison and Robertson, and two strikers Olivier Giroud behind Daniel. James burst forward, FC United changed to 352.

Not only are Pepe, Rice, McKim and DJ who started two days ago still starting, but even the formation and tactics have changed, FC United use the usual 433 in the Carabao Cup, and play back and forth with Chelsea in a combination of sides.

And in the league, on the road, the posture made it clear that I was going to play defensively and counter-attacking.

Sarri guessed that Lu Wei would have Giroud at the heart of the league, so he took a turn with David in the Carabao Cup. Luiz and Christensen, let them keep all their strength in this game.

But Daniel. James continued to start something that Sarri did not expect, Rudiger defended the little DJ to death in the Carabao Cup game, and was replaced by Lu Wei at the beginning of the second half, but he did not expect Lu Wei to continue to send him on this game.

"Damn, you kid thinks Anthony [Rudiger] won't start this game, do you?"

Sarri is angry at more than that, Chelsea's backline is not fast, even slower, only David. Louis can keep up with Daniel a little. James's speed, but only for half a second.

"Are you going to put Po on him? Then you have to have a chance to fight back.

Sarri subconsciously touched the cigarette in his pocket, only then remembered that the game had begun, cursed a few words, and called the assistant coach to start communicating his ideas to the players.

Soon the FC United players on the pitch sensed that Chelsea's attack was more intense, but FC United's formation was not at all chaotic, as if it was all expected by them.

Sarri gradually sensed something was wrong, Trippier, who should have been on the right wing, had been close to the centre to assist the defense, while Maddison, who should have been in the forward position, appeared on the right and was always by Eden Hazard's side to interfere with him.

Before Sarri could react, FC United scored.

Eden Hazard swung Maddison away from the left flank, and just as he was about to find a teammate to cooperate, Trippier kicked the ball away from his feet, McGim pulled the ball away from Kovacic's frontal grab, turned around and passed the ball to Jorginho.

Jorginho had a good eye on his teammate's position in front before McGin's pass, and a long pass directly to Chelsea's half, Daniel Jiaojino kept the ball straight to Chelsea. James started with a position still from the half-court line, and it was impossible to be offside.

David. Louis muffled and chased Daniel. James, but when he felt that he should be about to catch up with him when he was running with all his strength, he looked up and found Daniel. James has already dribbled the ball into the box, and he still has two more steps to run from the top of the arc.

Edward. Mendy opened his body and half-crouched down to wait for Daniel. James shot, they know each other well, and four years of promotion from League One to the Premier League is not something anyone can spend together.

"Come on, Danny, it doesn't matter if you play in the far or near corner, you won't score, like you did in those previous training sessions."

Edward. Mendy stared at Daniel. James's feet, and Daniel. James was also staring at Edward. Mendy silently recited in his heart what Lu Wei said to him during training.

"Edward, I think you also know, not a goalkeeper who doesn't like to play very much but has a very high one-on-one success rate, but I want to tell you one thing, that is, although Edward has a large defensive range, quick reflexes, and sometimes stands more risky, his reflexes and physical fitness will make a ball that ordinary people can't save, so if you get a one-on-one opportunity, shoot at an angle that rarely kicks, and move fast."

Don't you go to the angle of kicking, that should be there.

Daniel. James dribbled the ball into the box, not giving much time for Edward to react, poked it on tiptoe, and poked the ball out with an unconventional shooting motion.

Edward was still swaying from side to side, interfering with Daniel, and he could pounce as soon as he threw himself left or right with his center of gravity down.

But after Daniel's shot, Edward was stunned for a moment, such a sudden shot made him slow down, and the route of this shot suddenly made him a little flustered.

Daniel did not shoot into the two corners of the goal, the purpose of the football was to pass through Edward. That little door between Mendy's legs!

Edward tried to brake and foot in a panic, but this only made his movements more funny, and the football had passed under his crotch to hit the net, and Edward fell to the ground with a stagger.

1:0！ A standard defensive counterattack! FC United take the lead at Stamford Bridge!
